Sustainable, Low Impact Technology
WATER
Almost 2,700 liters of water are used to make one shirt. Alban Rowe fabrics use 90% less water that traditional dyeing.
DYES
Poor fixation of commonly used dyes onto fibers results in 200,000 tons of unfixed dyes / chemicals washed into effluents. Alban Rowe fabrics only apply what’s needed - ZERO dye waste and no harmful discharges.
CHEMICALS
300 grams of toxic chemicals per shirt pollute our water streams. Alban Rowe fabrics do not rely on any chemicals to give easy-care or wrinkle-free properties.
ENERGY
Textile dyeing requires high temperatures, accounting for up to 25% of total energy use from fiber to fabric. Alban Rowe fabrics don’t rely on high heat processes, saving significant energy during production.
LANDFILL
Mass production in the fashion industry yields huge amounts of waste. Alban Rowe fabrics eliminate the need for over-production; thus, fewer unsold garments mean less landfill waste.
